Placebo – For What It’s Worth

• 26th May 2009

For what it’s worth, I’ve never been able to tolerate Brian Molko’s accent. Some vocalists have such a strong accent in their singing voice that it either makes it or breaks it for the listener. For what it’s worth, it’s the latter in this case here.

This song sees him pretty much singing in the way that he is accustomed to, so for what it’s worth this will be either great news to fans or sad news to those who are not. But, for what it’s worth, the music is a step up, becoming very lively and enjoyable itself. It’s also a very short song which makes Molko easier to bare. In short doses.
